Free Bike Giveaways

The Bikes-for-All! program provides adults who do not have access to a bicycle a commuter bike complete with lights, a lock, and a helmet. More importantly, the program provides participants with quality bicycle safety information. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis and fulfilled on a first come, first serve basis.

Open Shop

This is a self-directed space for adults to use our tools and repair stands with the help of a professional mechanic and volunteer “Hosts.” Open Shop is a friendly, safe, and non-judgmental environment to empower yourself to learn mechanics, help others, and build community! Fix that flat tire from last spring, or change out your handlebars to a comfort bar for commuting. There is no better way to demystify your bike than taking a wrench to it yourself!
